Millions are struggling with the cost of food, housing, and other basic necessities. 70% of U.S. adults say the American Dream is dead. How does Trump respond? By saying "affordability" is a "Democrat scam" and a "hoax." Hello?

For The Ringer, I wrote about how if Netflix succeeds in buying Warner Bros. and HBO, it would put an exclamation point on is absolute victory in the Streaming Wars:

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

You can hear a CNN panelist off camera laughing as Trump gets the “2025 FIFA Peace Prize.”

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

BREAKING: NYT reporting that Trump has just fired 8 immigration judges in New York City who worked at 26 Federal Plaza. That's NYC ICE HQ.
In the city that declares "give us your tired your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free," Trump shuts down due process for immigrants. This is fascism.

“In a rare split with the Trump administration, GOP-led panels in the House and Senate say they want a full accounting in the September military attack.”
Hegseth appears to have crossed a line even the GOP can’t ignore.

Someone needs to say it. Trump 2028 isn’t happening.
We know the presidency ages you, and we’re witnessing his rapid decline. His approval is buried in the 30s, and his stamina is gone. He won’t be able to vigorously campaign.
He can pretend 2028 is inevitable, but everyone can see the truth.

"Anti-woke" is just seeking license to be an asshole.
Tim Walz: "Trump is like, 'this is language policing. You guys are woke.' Many times it's just about being decent to people and making them feel included. You can use that word, sure. But you shouldn't. And that's something that Donald Trump fails to realize."

Mike Johnson's official bio says he has "two decades of previous experience in Constitutional law." Yet, when Trump threatens to execute Democratic members of Congress, he suddenly has no opinion.
This is what shameful cowardice does to someone like Johnson and it is how he will be remembered.

Host: The Syrian president came in, and Trump sprayed perfume all over him. Did he smell?
Leavitt: That happens all the time. Not just with the Syrian president, but I've seen it with other foreign leaders. I've seen it with cabinet members, myself.
